[quote=Anonymous]oh come on. things get cheaper and what was previously thought of as a luxury item becomes a staple of modern household. Yes, we are well aware how in the 50s and 60s a television set or a DW or washing machine might have been luxury items, but now even the homes on the lower end get them, so what. Back in 19th century electricity was a luxury, should we go back to middle ages? Some of the posters here sound like a bunch of old hags who are just grumbling about the vices of the new generation. OK, this is normal, regardless what the new generation does, they can't do things right, hasn't this been a case throughout the history? We did several remodeling projects and if you are smart and do your research you can do things on the cheap even high end materials. On our first project we were ripped off, but we learned our lesson and now doing things on the cheap, even though the end result might look like we have spent a fortune. Sometimes, things are not what they appear. Some of you make it sound like the Gen Y or whatever 20 somethings hire some high end architecture firms and general contractors who charge an arm and a leg and a kidney and then wait with their hands folded while the work gets done and mommy and daddy pay. Some of us get down and dirty and do our own work, our own plans, permits, learn a bit about electrical/plumbing/roofing, etc and hire our own subcontractors. In other words, we work for it and we love to enjoy the fruits of our labor. [/quote]
